New Sun Mountain Outerwear Combines Popular Features

November 18, 2020 by Steve

New for 2021, Sun Mountain is introducing the Trapper Jacket which combines features of several of the company’s most popular styles. The lightweight shell offers 4-way stretch and is water-resistant and windproof. The insulation is the patented 37.5 technology. Together, these features make Trapper the ideal outerwear for golf on cool, blustery days. Trapper is available now with a retail price of $179.99.

The Trapper Jacket combines features of several of Sun Mountain’s most popular styles. The shell is made with Zamza Light, a lightweight, proprietary Japanese fabric with 4-way stretch that is also extremely water-resistant and windproof. The insulation in this puff jacket is 37.5, a patented technology that works to maintain an ideal core temperature, enabling wearer to perform better, longer.

The full-zip Trapper Jacket is available in Men’s sizes Medium – XX Large in Black, Navy and Platinum. The jacket features a zip-through collar with chin-guard, chest pocket, and zippered hand-warmer pockets.

37.5 insulation is a synthetic fiber known for its unique ability to absorb body heat and help transmit moisture out. This results in maintaining an ideal core temperature for athletic performance and comfort. 37.5 insulation keeps the body warm without overheating, allowing jackets featuring it to be worn longer and in a broader range of temperatures. 37.5 also resists odors and its insulating qualities never wash out or wear away.

Sun Mountain is also using 37.5 insulation in the Granite Jacket and Vest which feature a square, quilting pattern; and Colter Jacket and Vest and Women’s AT Hybrid Jacket and Vest featuring insulated core panels with 4-way stretch side panels.

Finn Cycle Wins Golf Digest Editors’ Choice

April 2, 2020 by Steve

The Finn Cycle electric golf scooter has been awarded 2020 Golf Digest Editors’ Choice – Best Club Transport.

The editors’ wrote:

“Unless you’re the sort who likes to pack your bag when playing, you need something to help you transport your clubs around the course. That can take varying forms these days depending on whether you want to walk, ride or even cruise around The Villages.

In the alternative-riding category, the street-bike-like Finn Cycle remains our choice for its ease of use, reduced wear on the course and ability to improve pace of play. We also have a repeat in our alternative-walking category with Club Car’s Tempo Walk, which allows you to have the device haul your bag while you walk slightly ahead of it as it dutifully follows you as if you had a caddie. Just don’t ask it for a yardage.”

ClubGlider Pro Awarded Golf Digest Editors’ Choice

April 2, 2020 by Steve

The Sun Mountain ClubGlider Pro was named 2020 Golf Digest Editors’ Choice for Best Golf Travel Bag.

The editors’ said:

“For the last few years Sun Mountain’s ClubGlider Meridian has been our top choice for travel cover. But what if you could have all the goodies that come with that model and make it large enough where you could possibly stuff two bags instead of one inside? When traveling you want as few bags as possible and the ability to possibly eliminate one is why the company’s ClubGlider Pro is our choice this year.

Starting with the pivoting handle that leaves you in control of the travel bag instead of fighting with it, the ClubGlider Pro addresses pretty much all the niggling things golfers tend to gripe about when it comes to travel covers. It has plenty of cushioning, so there’s no worry about club breakage, and has pockets to store anything you’re going to need on a golf trip and then some. Then there is the technology: a retractable stand with wheels that lets you cruise effortlessly to and through the baggage check line without constantly having to prop the travel cover up in a standing position. At your destination, the cover folds up easily and doesn’t take up all your trunk space.

In fact, about the only thing you need to worry about is airline weight limits for bags if you’re putting two of them in together.”

Finn Gets an App

February 25, 2020 by admin

Finn, the new electric golf scooter that’s adding fun and speeding up pace of play, now has its own app for scan & ride ease. Simply download the app to your smartphone, scan the QR code on the Finn Cycle, and away you go. Developed by our founder, Rick Reimers, Finn Cycle is a two-wheeled, single-rider cycle with an electric motor and lithium battery that offers a comfortable and stable ride that leaves all who ride it smiling. Finn Cycles are currently part of the rental fleet at over 70 golf courses across the country. To find a Finn for rental near you, go to www.FinnScooters.com/locations.

“The inspiration for Finn is the desire to play a faster round of golf,” said Rick Reimers. “Riding Finn is invigorating and sporty while encouraging ready golf. This new app makes the rental process quicker and easier for the pro shop and for the golfer.”

The Finn Scooters app is available for free in the Apple App Store and Google Play. From the app, first-time users can view safety and instructional information, review terms and conditions, pay the rental fee and unlock the cycle for use. Subsequent rentals will be a simple scan and ride.

The golf bag sits along the center-line of Finn Cycle offering easy golf club access and riding stability. Finn Cycle has front and rear suspension for a comfortable ride and braking with hand-operated disc brakes. The electric motor is in the rear wheel offering a sleek design. The lithium battery can go up to 36-holes on a single charge though charging after every round is suggested.

Finn travels at the same speed as a traditional golf cart, approximately 15 mph, and offers the opportunity to substantially speed up the pace of play by naturally encouraging ready golf with each player driving directly to his/her ball.

Reimers has a well-deserved reputation for creating innovative golf products that become industry mainstays such as the golf bag with built-in legs and the golf push cart.

Kube’s fabric is further reinforced in wear areas and heavy-duty, two-way zippers run the full length of the golf travel bag to make it easy to load.

“Kube is ideal for someone who travels periodically with their golf clubs,” explains President of Sun Mountain, Ed Kowachek, “and wants their golf travel bag to take up as little space as possible when not in use.”
